Does anyone know the pressure in Brighton?

Nope.

How could one get the contaminants or other contents of water over the
internet - surely it is in the public domain?

You can get water quality reports...

has anyone experience of doing this for bath (ie whole house water)
which seems most improbable

Its more usual to do a tap in the kitchen...

likewise has anyone done this for cooking and drinking (very likely)
and if so
what do the recommend?
It seems to me to be money for old rope with the cost of filters etc
and that for drinking and cooking there must me a gravity filtration
or ion exchange system that would be cheaper
I may be wrong and in which case if a reverse osmosis system is the
answer - any recommendations?

There are two reasons to filter water generally, to remove harmful
content, and to improve its aesthetics. The former almost never applies in
the uk unless you are on a private supply etc. The latter comes down to a
question of taste (literally in some cases).




Particulates like
grit, rust, or even water worms are generally not harmful, although they
certainly make it less appealing.

Stick a worm in Tequila and people will pay more for it!
